Southampton defender Wesley Hoedt urges teammates to bounce back from FA Cup semi-final heartbreak and secure Premier League survival

Wesley Hoedt admitted Southampton 'were not good enough' as they exited the FA Cup at the hands of Chelsea, with the defender vowing they will refocus on the fight for Premier League survival.

Relegation-threatened Saints' trip to Wembley ended in what has become all too familiar disappointment, with Olivier Giroud and substitute Alvaro Morata securing safe passage into May's final for the Blues.
